Default 86 Front Spoiler installation ?

When installing the front spoiler on early MY C4's, are the mounting bolts installed facing up or down (are the nuts installed from the top or the bottom)

A friend suggested that I look in the FSM. Wow, what a good idea !

I did, and now I can answer my own question.

Seems that the left & right air deflectors are installed in the Up position and the center air deflector bolts are installed in the Down position. FWIW.
